Registration Statement on Form SB-2
(Registration Number 333-122755)
--------------------------------
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We hereby request that the effective date for the Registration
Statement referred to above be accelerated so that such Registration Statement
will become effective at 9:30 a.m., New York time, on July 25, 2005 or as soon
thereafter as practicable.
We acknowledge that should the Commission or the staff, acting
pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not
foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; the
action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority,
in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Registrant from its full
responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing;
and the Registrant may not assert staff comments and the declaration of
effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any
person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
Very truly yours,
CEPTOR CORPORATION
By: /s/ William H. Pursley
